Ruling Against Mumia Shows: No Justice in the Capitalist Courts Internationalist Group 2008-03-31 1:10 AM
On March 27, the U.S. appeals court in Philadelphia reaffirmed the frame-up conviction of Mumia Abu-Jamal, the former Black Panther Party spokesman and world-renowned radical journalist who has been locked up on Pennsylvania’s death row for more than a quarter century. After previously rejecting Mumia’s request to present evidence of his innocence, as well as a host of issues showing that he was railroaded by a racist court, the Court turned down Mumia’s request for a new trial. It upheld the 2001 ruling by a federal district judge that ordered a new hearing on the sentence, but limited the “choice” to the living hell of life imprisonment without parole ... or execution. Mumia is innocent. He was declared guilty and sentenced to die because of his revolutionary politics and because for years he had been a thorn in the side of the racist rulers of the misnamed “city of brotherly love.” Around the world, millions have come out in defense of Jamal. This latest ruling, like all those that preceded it, shows that the exploited and oppressed must have no faith in the racist injustice system. We call on the workers movement to mobilize its power to free Mumia now! (text/html)

La izquierda financiada por George W. Bush Luis Agüero Wagner 2008-03-30 11:49 AM
Advertía Jorge Luis Borges en “El jardín de los senderos que se bifurcan” que la mejor manera de no perderse en un laberinto es tomar siempre hacia la izquierda, consejo que no debemos subestimar si queremos comprender el romance entre la prensa adicta al imperio y un supuesto teólogo de la liberación tercermundista.

police equate civil disobediance at lafitte development with terrorism mike howells 2008-03-26 2:06 AM
Supporters of the right of return and public housing staged a Good Friday protest action at the Lafitte Housing development that ended with three participants being arrested. The three conducted a simple occupation of an apartment at the development scheduled for demolition.. Upon arrest the three were charged with violating a state anti-terrorist law passed in the aftermath of the September 11 attacks.

PARAGUAY. Escalada de violencia machista Luis Agüero Wagner 2008-03-26 12:23 AM
Hace más de cincuenta años, Virginia Woolf escribió en un ensayo que si un marciano visitara la tierra y se formara idea de ella con la sola lectura de los diarios, pensaría que se trata de un planeta habitado únicamente por hombres. Si la nave espacial de este personaje extraterrestre tuviera la desgracia de posarse hoy en Paraguay, y quisiera informarse sobre donde fue a parar leyendo el diario ABC color de Aldo Zucolillo, no sólo pensaría que llegó a un planeta exclusivamente habitado por hombres, sino además que los propietarios de medios se encuentran aún en la época de las cavernas.

Boston-area convicts linked to CIA nexus theamericanmonitor 2008-03-23 5:41 AM
During the late 1980s and early 1990s, the CIA used al-Kifah to support covert operations overseas. With the full backing of the U.S. government, the organization set up branches in more than thirty American cities to raise funds and recruit fighters for the CIA’s anti-Soviet Afghan jihad. In the early 90s, once again with U.S. support and encouragement, al-Kifah shifted its focus to the Balkans, helping to instigate a civil war in Bosnia in 1992. This case, like so many others, proves the government’s so-called “war on terror” is really a chase for its own tail. As long as the truth is buried and the media remains silent, the hopeless pursuit will continue. (text/plain)

Does The HUD Survey Of Public Housing Residents Really Reflect What They Feel mike howells 2008-03-22 3:18 AM
Supporters of the demolition of New Orleans public housing point to the results of the recent HUD commissioned UTA survey as proof that residents support the demolition of their pre-Katrina homes. However, existing research and recent history suggest that the respondents to the UTA survey were anything but likely to posit answers that contradicted official HUD policy. This brief article examines factors likely to discourage HANO residents from putting forward positions on a HUD sponsored survey that expressed for returning to homes scheduled for demolition.
